I just finished this tom, made from a Keller Vintage Maple shell that Aitwood cut down to 10" x 7". Great little drum.

Thanks! You mean the tag? I took a picture of a Cleveland tag and then did the rest in Photoshop, using skew (because it wasn't straight, since it was stuck on the inside of my kick) and then I changed the model and the serial number and printed it out on thick paper. I wanted to finish the drum off - sort of sign it; and also tag it so that in the future, it would be easy to tell that it's a tribute to Rogers - not a knock-off - but not made by Rogers either.

A fantastic job! As always, blue glass glitter is a stunning finish! Kudos with the tag recreation. Yep, 50 years from now, historians will be scratching their heads! LoLoLoLo
